Won't fit over brakes at all I'm guessing.
Definitely wont fit on an RS that's for sure as 15s cutting it close as it is with only a few mm to spare

13" 100% won't fit
Found this on google.
So The Twingo1 takes 13"s as standard, but i'd be interested about getting 13"s on something like the 133 or the II GT
Model Year-(MY) Torque (NM) Tyre Size Pressure Front (PSI) Pressure Rear (PSI)
Twingo 93 – 07 90 145/70R13 29 29
Twingo II 07 – 12 105 175/65R14 31 29
Twingo II 07 – 12 105 185/55R15 31 29
Twingo II 07 – 12 105 195/45R16 33 31
Twingo II 07 – 12 105 195/40R17 34 30

The Twingo 1 does, but if you wanted to put it on a 133 you have 2 chances:
A. None
B. F*ck All.
Hate to be blunt but as has been said already, people are running 15s and getting VERY little caliper clearance - myself included.
The standard RS NON CUP takes 16" wheels, so a 3" drop in wheel size wouldn't work unless you went to smaller brakes..then it begs the question - why would you want small wheels with huge sidewalls and smaller brakes on a Renaultsport renowned for...well, it's Sportyness.

Won't fit over brake discs at all on the 133 as I said above 15s only clear the calipers by a few mm.
GTs run 15s but are the same brakes as the other basic model twingos which run 14s so 13s still might not fit over the brakes at all.

Gotcha, I'll forget the 133 and look at the other 1.2 models. Hopefully they take 13", otherwise i'll contemplate the LHD twingo 1, pity it's so damn ugly.
I've got a large collection of non road legal wheels/tyres for racing (slicks/wets/intermediates) - all 13".

It's possible they fit on the Twingo Mk I which never made it to the UK though.

13'' fit just fine on old Twingo, they've come as standard on mine ('98 Twingo 1.2 8V Spring edition).

14" wheels are the smallest that will clear the 259mm front brakes on the non RS twingos
